France and Germany.

PARIS: April 23.-RepubIique Francaise
says that the German government has
informed Flourens, minister of foreign
affairs, that BisU arck admits that if
the arrest of Commissary Schnael 8
was made on French territory, inter
national law will require his release.
French papers persistently urge calm
! ness, and that the government be left
| to pursue the necessary action.
BERLIN, April 23.-The National
Zeitung says: Anxiety is groundiess.
We are convinced that government will
not approve anything not in conformity
! with international law. 1t is well
known that Germany has often allowed
French spies to go free, and it is i'm
probable that Schnaebles was decoyed
! into Germany so as to allow of his
seizure by German officials. 1t has al
ready been distinctly denied that there
was any attempt made to decoy
Schnaebles.
VIENNA, April 23.-Some of the am
bassadors at Berlin have been assured
that no serious re- ults will follow the
arrest of Schnaebles.
PARIS, April 23.-Public feeling here
concerning the arrest of Schnaebles has
grown much calmer. 1t has TRANSFERRED
that the Leipsic court, previous to
the arrest, had condemned Schn aebles
for high treason in melting recruits to
| desert.
The Cabinet, to-day, discussed
Schnaebles' arrest. Sorrien. Minister
of Justice, submitted a report of the
affair to the Procurator of Nancy,
within whose jurisi ction it took place,
and the evidence introduced at the
judi ial inquiry, snowed that the ar
rest was made Oh French soil. The
Cabinet. as a resnIJ Of the discussion
re olved that Flourens, Foreign Minis
ter communicate with the German
ambassador, and through Herbert,
French ambassador at Berlin, to Ger
many, the subject of the matter of the
| documents.

The Books We Take To.

The late disputes about the "Hun-
dred Best Books" fail to take account
of the fact that we care for books as we
care for persons-not because we ought
to. but because we cannot help it. 1t
is n matter of temperament and affinity.
not Of moral or literary principle. No
doubt admire supreme virtue, incor-
ruptible honor, dazzling intellect in man
or woman; but am free to say that l
would not, if could, make the embod-
iment thereof my constant companion.
I like little human frailty. few char
acteristic foibles, an occasional incon-
sequence or folly. They bring their
possessor nearer to me; they show me
that he feels, as l do, the arduousness
OF life; that we make common cause to-
gcther. 1--WE needs must love the
highest when we see it," says Tenny-
son; mot Lancclot, nor another"
Well. l love Lancelot and not Arthur
and so did Guinevere. He committed
a grievous fault; but the richness of
life, the passion, the romance, were in
him.
So, too. l admire Paradise Lost, ="
1.-The Divine Comedy" ''Sartor Resar-
tus.' But l find, rs the years pass by,
that these are not the books in my Ii
brary whose covers are the loosest and
whose leaves arc the most dog-eared.
But there are books that draw me as
fresh water draws a thirsty man; re-
turn to them again and again; l can
not weary of them, because part OF
my own life is lived through them; my
blood circulates in them; every day
discover in them new pleasure. as
do in each new day. They do for me
that which nothing else can do; they
are not perfect, but to me they are
more winning than perfection. l have
many wants. many deficiencies, many
moods; and my favorite books are those
which suit my moods. remedy my def
ciencies and supply my wants. know
when l need this volume, or that, OF
the other. Every man at 40 is either a
fool or a physician; and, at 40, every
man who is not a fool has found out
with what medicines to treat the vary
ing ailments of his literary constitu-
ton; and he keeps the medicines on his
nearest bookshelf. f.-Julian Hawthorne,

MorriSSey's Big Luck,

San Francisco Examiner: 4 miner in
Leadville, Col, who can neither read nor
write, is worth to-day atleast 50, 600, 900.
Four years ago he hadn't a penny except
what he earned from day to day as IL
miner. His name is John l.. Morrissey.
He is young man not over thirty-two or
thirty three. The Crown Point mine, like
Tom Bowen's Golconda, WAS just about
paying expenses. Herowners offered to sell
he for $40, 900. Morrissey went to Chicago
and interested Diamond j Joe Reynolds in the
matter. Reynolds knew that Morrissey
was an authority on mining, even if he
couldn't write his name. He finally pur-
chased the Crown Point agreeing to give
Morrissey half interest after the original
sum was repaid. Within thirty days they
struck a vein OF high class ore that has
yielded them monthly income of SIS
900 apiece ever since. There is said to be
$4,000, 900 worth OF ore in sight. Morris
sey cannot even tell the time OF day. 1t is
stock Joke among the boys ii you ask
Morrissey what clock it is for him to
pull from his fob $500 watch, and with
a condescending air tell you to LUX for
yerself anl theny Il know am not lying

Advice to PASSENGERS.

correct. Ii the car il too warm don't
open the window on your suffering and
shivcring neighbor. Take of your muf-
tler, fur gloves and buffalo overcoat; it
will be perfectly proper. even though
there are ladies in the car. Give up
your pass. and pay your fare like a
man. Every time you travel on pass
some good man (accent heavy on the
'.good'') has to pay extra. P. S,--If
you decide to do this. don't waste your
pass; send it to me. Don't lie about
your 14-year-old boy any more. Be
honest, own up that he is 8 years old,
and pay half fare for him. Never ask
any question Of the station Or train men

An Invited Disaster.

The coroner's verdict in the case of
the disaster on the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad, near Republic, O., is a nota-
BILE one. On this occasion, it will be
remembered, a number of people came
to ii cir deaths from the manglinc
and burning caused by the collision
between freight and a passen-
ger train. The accumulation of short
comings on the part of the management
of the division of the road concerned,
as set forth by the Coroner. is some
thing remarka able.
1t was found that the locomotive of
the freight train had been in bad con-
dition for some time and had been kept
i'll use when it should have been in the
repair shop. Had it been in proper
trim a siding could have been reached
in time to let the other train pass.
The engineer had been seventeen hours
at work continuously and was all the
more weared from the fact that he had
an inexperienced fireman for helper
AAS w do III III NOhuttlOl W ufdho the
best of the situation in case of difficult
ty, The freight conductor had ample
time to flag the passenger train, but
neglected to do so. Moreover, if th 0
brakes on the approaching train had
been in good order it could have been
stopped quickly enough to prevent the
disaster. The heating and lighting of
the cars were found to be dangerous
in the extreme and it was declared
that the loss of life would have been
very small had it not heen for the burn
ing.
The verdies expresses regret that the
laws are not adequate to properly pun
fsh those who are responsible for the
gross negligence which caused so much
loss and suffering. and recommends
legislation. The loose management
here revealed is simply astonishing.
and if the verdict is fair one it is to
be hoped that all the law that can be
applied to the case will be made use of.

Printers and Cooks.

One who travels much in this cOun-
try and stays at hotels gets the impress
sion that the hotel-keepers are much
more particular about choosing print
er that cook. Probably in no other
country are the bills of fare SO fine. so
elaborate, so handsome, as ours. They
are often a fine-art and intellectual
treat. If person could live on an in
tellectual treat, no other people would
be so we'll fed at hotels as we are. We
do not spare language: French, Ger
man, sometimes English, are impress
ed into the service. The traveller can
not always read his bill of fare, but
that is the fault of his education; and
he is lucky in one tiling-if he cannot
tell what he is going to have, he is
troubled by no disappointment, for he
can rarely tell what he has had after he
tastes it. A clamor is now and then
raised that the people of the United
States, so assertive of their nationality
and proud of their language. ought to
have their bills of fare printed in En-
glish. The sufficient reply is that they
would not look as we'll, not have so much
style, not seem to be 50 we'll worth the
money. Sometimes mixture of langua-
ges has good effect, for it adds intelligi-
bility to the air of good society. At a
recent banquet of the Carpenters
Union in large Western city, the
''menu," among other curiosities, had
this course: Po1ssoNs: turkey. buffalo,
tongue, sugas-cured ham," This was
naturally followed by hors d esuvre,
The introduction of a little French
enlivens a dinner. and in mixed COM
pany where there may be those whose
faith excludes them from pork, the con-
science may be quieted by eating ham
as fish. The hotels, by all means.
should keep up their style. 1t is easier
to get up handsome bill of fare than
a good dinner, and when it is incon-
venient to have the latter, we cling to
the former. Those who want all the
bills printed in English are radicals,
who would drag down the bill to the
level of the dinner It is said that good
wine needs no bush, and the time may
come when q dinner will need no bill of
fare. Or only one in English, but we
are not yet in the Millennium, We are
a reading people, and it is much more
important to our souls that we should
have something to read than something
to eat. harIes Dudley Warner, in
Editors DraWer, Harper's Magazine.
